When the Bruen LMG was finally nerfed into the ground, there may as well have been an international day of celebration with the amount of relief felt by Call of Duty: Warzone players. However, there’s a new achingly powerful LMG in town: the FiNN.
This absolutely dominating weapon looks at the pre-nerf Bruen and says ‘Pah, call that overpowered?’ It’s picked up where the Bruen left off in terms of being arguably the strongest weapon in the battle royale mode, but it goes one step further by being a complete animal in multiplayer too. While the Bruen was strong, it was sort of a one-trick pony: it could only properly slay at medium to long distance.
The FiNN, however, can be set up in any which way you like and can be used as a close-quarters shredder, an AR-beating midrange beast, a long range laser beam, or even a wannabe minigun – it’s completely bonkers. As a result, streamers and content creators are going nuts for it, and it’s already made it into one of NICKMERCS’ Warzone loadouts.
With so many ways to build this gun, there isn’t really a definitive ‘best FiNN loadout” for Warzone, so we’ve come up with some setups that will cater for three different needs.
Best FiNN Warzone loadout for long range
The best Warzone FiNN loadout for long range is:
- Monolithic Suppressor
- XRK LongShot Adverse
- Tac Laser
- VLK 3.0x Optic
- Ranger Foregrip
This lineup of attachments makes the perfect FiNN build for cutting down far away enemies. With increased damage range, aiming stability, and that all important VLK 3.0x Optic for zooming right in on your victim, it’s a bit of a monster and has similar, if not better, slaying abilities than the Bruen before it was nerfed.
Mobility takes a hit, though, so make sure you’re running this with a more agile SMG or shotgun for close range engagements.
Best FiNN Warzone loadout for close range
The best Warzone FiNN loadout for close range is:
- Monolithic Suppressor
- Tac Laser
- Merc Foregrip
- No Stock
- 5.56 CT 75-Round Belts
If you like getting up close and personal in Warzone, this FiNN build is the one for you. While it sacrifices a lot of long distance strength, these attachments make it quick, agile, and snappy.
With improved ADS speed and movement speed, the FiNN feels closer to an AR than an LMG. The 5.56 CT ammunition could divide opinion however, as it does reduce bullet velocity and damage. If you don’t get on with this attachment, swap it out for the Sleight of Hand weapon perk, as that will make reloading (which can take a while with the FiNN) a lot faster.
Best FiNN ChainSAW Warzone loadout
The best Warzone FiNN loadout with the hip-fire only ChainSAW attachment is:
- Monolithic Suppressor
- XRK LongShot Adverse
- 5.56 NATO 100-Round Belts
- XRK ChainSAW
- Tac Laser
Oh boy is this thing a hoot. While it might not be advisable to actually run a ChianSAW FiNN in Verdansk, if you’re brave enough to give it a shot then this is how you want it set up.
The ChainSAW stock turns this LMG into a minigun-style hip-fire weapon – similar to the Hades Operator Mod from Black Ops 4. While you can’t ADS, it really packs a punch, and is being billed as a beast in small multiplayer maps like Shipment, rather than in the extensive battlefield of Warzone.
However, this build gives you the best shot if you really want to drop in as an aspiring Juggernaut, with the impetus on bullet damage and aiming stability, as well as having 100 rounds in the mag so you can just keep that trigger finger held down all day long.
There we have it, folks, our long range, close range, and ‘completely lost your marbles’ builds for the best FiNN loadouts. This thing shreds, so get some game time in with it while you can, as chances are it’ll be dialled down at some point in the near future.
